A car travels a distance of \(x\) with speed \(v_1\) and then same distance \(x\) with speed \(v_2\) in the same direction. The average speed of the car is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\frac{2 v _1 v _2}{ v _1+ v _2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\text { Average velocity }=\frac{\text { Total displacement }}{\text { Total time }}\)
\(=\frac{ x + x }{\frac{ x }{ v _1}+\frac{ x }{ v _2}}=\frac{2 v _1 v _2}{ v _1+ v _2}\)
